Гидо Вестервелле:

Армяно-турецкое примирение соответствует и исходит из интересов этих обеих стран. Об этом 16 марта в Ереване на совместной пресс- конференции с главой МИД Армении Эдвардом Налбандяном заявил министр иностранных дел Германии Гидо Вестервелле.

"Германия содействует армяно-турецкому примирению и считает что примирение выгодно обеим странам, однако процесс примирения должен проходить поэтапно", - отметил Вестервелле.

Нормализация армяно-турецких отношений началась 10 октября 2009 года, когда главы МИД Армении и Турции подписали в Цюрихе "Протокол об установлении дипотношений" и "Протокол о развитии двусторонних отношений", которые должны были быть ратифицированы парламентами двух стран. В свете того, что Турция всячески тянула с ратификацией документов, президент Армении Серж Саргсян 22 апреля 2010 подписал указ о приостановлении процесса ратификации армяно-турецких протоколов. Тем не менее, оба документа остаются в повестке дня НС.

Kremlin taking urgent measures to protect May 9 parade from Ukrainian attacks

The Kremlin was forced Wednesday to say it was taking "all necessary measures" to ensure the safety of foreign leaders set to attend its flagship May 9 parade after a wave of Ukrainian drone attacks closed airports across the country, disrupting hundreds of flights. Moscow and Kyiv traded a barrage of drone attacks ahead of the parade, which has become a key event during Vladimir Putin's 25 years in power, as US talks pushing for an end to the conflict appeared to have stalled. Moscow will hold the Victory Day event on Red Square to mark 80 years of the defeat of Nazi Germany, an anniversary that comes more than three years into its Ukraine offensive.
